Melody,I really appreciate your E2 tutorial. I just got mine yesterday and I am almost ready to send it back, because I find it very confusing and the instructions are worthless. After viewing your tutorial, I will give it another chance. I am very disappointed after all the hype.Carol

The cutting speed cannot be adjusted when using Craft Room with Expression, Create, or Personal Cutter. We are looking at ways to allow it to be adjusted. Speed can be adjusted if you are using E2 or Imagine. The settings in the CCR Cut Preview screen will override any setting on the machine itself.

If you can't catch the E2 firmware on boot up, tap the wrench icon on the main screen, tap the right arrow at the bottom 4 times, then tap the ! icon. You will see the firmware number which is a series of number:a series of numbers:a series of numbers.

The current software version (Friday, October 7, 2011) of the E2 is Version 1.01 (0043:0017:0240). Therefore, if that is not your version or greater, then you need to update.

Current update as of November 15, 20110065:0017:268556

Mercy - Firstly thanks for all your help on this MB I have E2 5th. Anniversary Edition (no WiFi connector came with my machine) - I have just updated my E2 and the numbers (on the machine) are as follows: 1.01 0065:0017:0240 - can you tell me why my numbers are different to the current 15th. Nov. update and also different to the Cr.Sync numbers? On Sync after I updated the numbers showing on my computer were: 2.053 0065:0017. Also If I install the drivers for CCR on my E2 - can I still install the drivers for the Imagine? Stupid questions probably - sorry

Nooo, not a stupid question at all and you're welcome. One of our members updated her E2 to that firmware so if you did not get that firmware, then that probably tells me that PC is still tweaking it and pulled that one. Therefore, I will re-post it with your firmware until further notice. Thanks for alerting me and you are up to date.

Yes, you can install the drivers for as many different Cricuts that you have as the CCR drivers are different for each machine.

The E2 can link both Imagine Art and Pattern carts to the Gypsy Imagine App.

The E2 can link Imagine Art carts to CCR. It cannot link Imagine Pattern carts at this time. Currently, you can only link cartridges when you go to print/cut with them, so only Imagine could ever ask you for a pattern cart to even reach the option to link it.

The E2 can add both Imagine Art and Pattern carts to the Gypsy Imagine App.

Hi Mercy, You want to clarify this one? Just to link carts right? As far as I know you cannot use the Gypsy Imagine App with the E2. Has something changed?

Yes, to add the carts to the GI app as you can use the E2 or the I. I did not ask if the GI app can be used with the E2 yet as I will send another email to see if we will be able to or if it is capable of doing so now. Well, at least the cutting feature.

Thanks Mercy. I can tell you for a fact that the Imagine App DOES NOT work with the E2 (at least 0111:0035 doesn't). Now maybe there's been an update to allow this (and you KNOW I am still waiting on one to fix the legacy cart issue where the Imagine wants you to plug it in), but at the the version above the App will tell you that your IMAGINE is not plugged in.HTH and keep us posted!

You're welcome and thank you! I did send an email to inquire if the GI app will be capable of cutting with the E2.

Imagine and E2 has the same results. When you change cartridges, it will clear the queue. But you can use it for detecting cartridges in CCR, as long as you push the button so the jukebox has highlighted the cartridge CCR is looking for.

Tip of the Day!

The firmware can also be found in Cricut Sync. Once the E2 is connected, click help and about as the firmware, Cricut Sync version and your E2's serial number should be displayed in a popup screen on your computer.

The AE2 owner who will receive an E2 as a replacement at some point in the future will be given access to Just a Note and Cricut Decals that was pre-loaded with the AE2. Product and Development is aware of this issue as a process for a future access is still in the works. A physical cart will not be given out with the replacement as the E2 will only come with the 2 pre-loaded carts of the E2, Alphabet and Essentials.

Unfortunately DS is not compatible with the E2 (or Imagine). However, you can download and use Cricut Craftroom. HTH
